Solve x^2 + 6x + 4=0?

Mathematics

You need to use the quadratic formula for this question.
\frac{-b+- \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}
In your equation, a is 1, b is 6, and c is 4. (I couldn't find a plus minus sign, so that's what the +- means, sorry if there's confusion.)
Sub those into the quadratic formula, and 
\frac{-6+- \sqrt{(6)^2-4(1)(4)} }{2(1)}
For the first answer, we should get 
x1=-0.7639, when you add the √6^2-4(1)(4)
For the second answer, we get
x2=-5.2361 when we subtract the √6^2-4(1)(4)
Therefore, the x values that make this equation equal to 0 should be approximately -0.7639 and -5.2361.
The more specific answers are
x1= -3+√5 and x2=-3-√5.

The sequence an = one third (3)n - 1 is graphed below: coordinate plane showing the points 2, 1; 3, 3; and 4, 9 Find the average
charle [14.2K]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  6

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line between (3, 3) and (4, 9) is given by the slope formula:

  m = <average rate of change> = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

  m = (9 -3)/(4 -3) = 6/1

  m = 6

The average rate of change on the interval [3, 4] is 6.

How do you solve multi variable equations?​
Mekhanik [1.2K]
1. Understand what multi-variable equations are.

Two or more linear equations that are grouped together are called a system. That means that a system of linear equations is when two or more linear equations are being solved at the same time.
[1] For example:
• 8x - 3y = -3
• 5x - 2y = -1
These are two linear equations that you must solve at the same time, meaning you must use both equations to solve both equations.

2. Know that you are trying to figure out the values of the variables, or unknowns.

The answer to the linear equations problem is an ordered pair of numbers that make both of the equations true.
In the case of our example, you are trying to find out what numbers ‘x’ and ‘y’ represent that will make both of the equations true.

• In the case of this example, x = -3 and y = -7. Plug them in. 8(-3) - 3(-7) = -3. This is TRUE. 5(-3) -2(-7) = -1. This is also TRUE.

3. Know what a numerical coefficient is.

The numerical coefficient is simply the number that comes before a variable.[2] You will use these numerical coefficients when using the elimination method. In our example equations, the numerical coefficients are:

• 8 and 3 for the first equation; 5 and 2 for the second equation.


4. Understand the difference between solving with elimination and solving with substitution.

When you use elimination to solve a multivariable linear equation, you get rid of one of the variables you are working with (such as ‘x’) so that you can solve the other variable (‘y’). Once you find ‘y’, you can plug it into the equation and solve for ‘x’ (don’t worry, this will be covered in detail in Method 2).

• Substitution, on the other hand, is where you begin working with only one equation so that you can again solve for one variable. Once you solve one equation, you can plug in your findings to the other equation, effectively making one large equation out of your two smaller ones. Again, don’t worry—this will be covered in detail in Method 3.


5. Understand that there can be linear equations that have three or more variables.

Solving for three variables can actually be done in the same way that equations with two variables are solved. You can use elimination and substitution, they will just take a little longer than solving for two, but are the same process.
